Caylee Hammack releases her sophomore album, Bed of Roses, officially out now, March 7th on all streaming platforms. Learn more and listen to the new album below.
Caylee Hammack is gifted at bringing her own flair to country music. Her music is unique blend of 70s soul and red-dirt rock, with the storytelling that the country genre does the best mixed in. Today, the singer-songwriter releases her sophomore album, featuring thirteen new songs. Bed of Roses is officially out now!
“Your bed of roses is the bed you make—you get to decide how you spend your time and how you plant your garden,” shared Hammack in a recent press release. “Good love is flowers that come back every year. Bad love, it’s just the thorn. Sometimes you’ve got to till shit up. You’ve got to work through things, and it’s not going to be fun. And then one day, your friends come over and you sit as a family on the back porch in the garden. And when they compliment the roses near the gate or the cherry tomatoes speckled about in the pasta, you get the pleasure of realizing, ‘I grew that, I put love, time and belief into something, and it paid off.’”
Make sure to listen to Bed of Roses ASAP!

Noah Thompson’s new song, “What You’re Made Of” is out now, March 7th, on all streaming platforms. Listen to the brand-new track below.
Ever since Noah Thompson graces our screen on American Idol, it was clear that the singer-songwriter had a story tell and music to create. The rising star has proved time and time again that he will always create music that represent who he is as an artist. Thompson’s newest single, out today, “What You’re Made Of” is another incredible example of that.
The new song is raw, real, and vulnerable. Throughout the track, Thompson honestly depicts what it’s like to grapple with the devil on your shoulder, ultimately, eventually, to let the angel win. In a relatable way, the song is a message to all of us that sometimes life is messy, but ultimately a little grit is just going to make us exactly who we are meant to be.
“I’ve let the lies inside my mind, get the best of me // I try to fight but I’m my own worst enemy // I’m learning day by day // All good things take time // You can’t lose your faith // Just hold on tight // The path to heaven ain’t’ payed in gold // The devil knows where you wanna go // Get knocked down, dust yourself off // Keep on walking // Crash and burn // love and learn // Ain’t worth a damn if it don’t heart // One day you’re flying // The very next you’re falling // I guess what doesn’t break you // Sure is bound to make you // find out what you’re made of”
Thompson is the real deal. He knows where he comes from and he knows where he is going. “What You’re Made Of” is a perfect example of that.

Mackenzie Carpenter releases her debut album, Hey Country Queen, officially out now, March 7th on all streaming platforms. Learn more and listen to the new album below.
With the kind of voice that immediately draws you in and the kind of lyrics that immediately grab your attention, Mackenzie Carpenter is ready to make her debut with Hey Country Queen. Already hugely successful as a writer on songs like Lily Rose’s “Villain” and Megan Moroney’s “I’m Not Pretty,” the undeniable Carpenter is ready to take a step forward as an artist.
On her debut album with The Valory Music Co, the Georgia native reveals herself as a true force to be reckoned with. Carpenter co-wrote each of the album’s thirteen tracks, and it’s truly representative of a young woman in her prime. “This album has been a long time coming, and I’m so excited to finally share these songs with you. I’ve lived with them for years, and now it’s time to set them free,” shares Carpenter. “Hey Country Queen captures the essence of girlhood, heartbreak and love, and I can’t wait for you to hear it.”
Carpenter kicks things off with the bluesy and twangy “Dozen Red Flags,” a tongue-in-cheek look at a dude whose good qualities overshadow the fact that he was a walking red flag. “This one’s for the girls who’ve ever fallen for the guy with more red flags than green,” says Carpenter. “‘Dozen Red Flags’ is flirty, fun and all about knowing he’s trouble but diving in anyway—because let’s face it, he’s cute. The song covers a little heartbreak, a lot of lessons and a fun debrief with your girls.”
“But, man, he was cute and, damn, he was funny // My brother thought he was the man // If violets are blue, then I’m such a dummy // To think he’d have roses in hand I would’ve settled for tulips or daisies // I ain’t picking petals ’cause all that he gave me // Was reasons for running And a couple dozen red flags”
“I Wish You Would” is an immediate standout, a perfect dancehall duet that allows Carpenter to riff off of Midland’s Mark Wystrach as they play a pair of fated lovers, unable to resist each other amongst the promises of neon lights and endless drinks. “‘I Wish You Would (ft. Midland)’ is a fun, flirty tune about wanting someone to be more forward, quit guessing and make the first move. It’s about craving a spark with someone and longing for more than a few glances with that person you’ve noticed from across the bar,” shares Carpenter. “Midland has always been a dream collaboration, and they bring a smooth classic vibe to the song.”
“I loved ‘I Wish You Would’ from the jump when Mackenzie and Jamie Moore sent it our way. When I went to lay my part, I was thrown back in time to the era of Conway and Lorretta Lynn and Kenny and Dolly iconic duets,” adds Wystrach. “The melodies are hypnotic, and the soaring hook is pure Country gold. The structure of the song is non-symmetrical, so it keeps revealing new sonic surprises leaving you wanting to hear it again and again.”
Carpenter also shines on ballads that are full of ache and heartache, evidenced on songs like “Red Wine Blue,” “Jesus, I’m Jealous,” “Guys Like You,” and “The Other Side.” While “Red Wine Blue” was inspired by a message from Dolly Parton that came to her in a dream, “Guys Like You” has her musing about a “guy’s girl” who everyone loves. “The Other Side” is a whimsical wonder that finds her dreaming what a certain love would be like, while “Jesus, I’m Jealous” is a gorgeous ballad that finds her longing for love, watching it all around her.
“But, Jesus, I’m jealous, just had to tell you // Watchin’ the two of ’em head over heels // I guess I was hopin’ I wouldn’t be lonely // And maybe by now I would know how that feels // He’s spinnin’ her ’round like she’s Cinderella // I shouldn’t be starin’, but hell, I can’t help it // Jesus, I’m jealous”
While many of the album’s ballads center around heartache, “Country Queen” and “Only Girl” tell very different stories. “Only Girl” is a sparse and poignant ballad that’s ready for a wedding song or Instagram post, celebrating the love of a man who treats a woman right.
“He looks at me like the only star in his sky // He holds me tight like he’ll never say goodbye // I know there’s millions and billions of people // Living in this world But he loves me like I’m the only girl // l Like I’m the only girl”
While Carpenter shines on ballads, she can also throw down a countrified romp with the best of them. Highlights include “Don’t Mess with Exes,” which finds her channeling her inner Miranda Lambert, while “Sound of a Heartbreak” is a driving and catchy up tempo and “Gowgirl LIke Me” channels a bit of hip-hop-meets-bro-country. “Boots On” is the perfect country pop romp, flirty and seductive as she entices her man to come home, promising that she ain’t got nothin’ but her boots on.
“Gone Fishin’” is a gritty, 80’s country story song of the best type, finding her serving up a bit of vengeance on the lake. “He’s gone fishing out in the dark // Wasn’t hard to fit him in the trunk of my car // Had to scrub down the dock and his tackle box // Used a whole damn gallon of Clorox,” She muses. “He’s gone fishing I’m at the bar // Perfect alibi drinking PBR // Nobody even knows he’s missing, Bet he’s wishing // He’d never gone fishing”
Inspired by the country queens that paved the way for her, Mackenzie Carpenter’s Hey Country Queen is the perfect introduction to the rising superstar who is clearly one of the genre’s next big queens

Craig Morgan shares his new EP, American Soundtrack, out now,February 28th, on all streaming platforms. Listen to the new music below.
When you think of Craig Morgan, there are a few things that immediately come to mind: faith, patriotism, passion, county living, and that signature voice. On his new EP, American Soundtrack, all of those are on full display.
Over the course of six new songs, the BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville artist takes listeners on a journey through all the things in life that are important to him. “I try to celebrate God, family and country in my music and in everything I do,” He shares. “That’s what I have always done and I’ve come to realize it’s my platform. I don’t stress about things as much as I used to. I just try to write, sing, produce and play the best music that we can and go where I think God wants me to be.”
Morgan co-wrote five of the EP’s six new tracks, aiming to create something special for his fans. The lone exception is the stunning “God’s Problems,” an impassioned ballad that finds the Grand Ole Opry Member desperate to live his life in a way that’s easy on God. “I live that song. I truly do,” he says. “I believe in what it says and every day I work hard to not be one of God’s problems. I try not to be one of those guys that God is having to work hard at trying to straighten up. There’s a resurgence in our society right now of people trying to overcome adversities and to do better in life. You can see it in our format. Jelly Roll, especially, is the template for that. He’s changing people’s lives, and I’d like to think that I’m doing the same thing.”
Similarly, “Blue Collar Prayer” is an emotional moment for Morgan, a slide guitar-laden look at simple people and the things they long for to make their lives better. While some may pray for things like money and fame, the protagonists in the story are working-class people like a farmer in need of rain and a pregnant waitress hoping for the best for her child.
“You might not see them every Sunday // In that little white clapboard church // ‘Cause she’ll be serving biscuits and honey // He’ll be in overalls and tractor dirt // I bet my last dime, they’ll both take the time // To talk to the man upstairs // For a real life, red, white, and blue collared prayer.”
“Country Education,” “Roots” and “Who I’m From” each celebrate the upbringings that make Southerners, and Craig Morgan, who they are. While “Roots” is a twangy celebration of the raising that formed him, “Who I’m From” is a tale of who he is and who he came from. It’s a unique spin on the typical hometown song, celebrating those who have influenced his life.
The album’s title track is an especially catchy and jubilant moment, name dropping the songs that accompany many of life’s biggest moments, ranging from “Sweet Home Alabama” to “Ring of Fire” to “Hotel California.”
For Craig Morgan, American Soundtrack represents the best of who he is as an artist and a person. “I hope these songs create positive energy,” shares the Tennessee native. “I want people to feel inspired. I want people to laugh and enjoy what we do, but I also hope it makes them feel motivated to do good, to live a good life and to be kind. I believe we should live our lives in accordance with God’s truth; in honesty, fairness, kindness, love, and generosity. When you are doing all those things everything else will just fall into place.”

From the moment Lily Rose came on to the country music scene, we have been fans!

Co-written by the singer, the new pop-country, fiery track captures how it feels to know what you deserve in a relationship. After a seemingly tumultuous break-up, the protagonist refuses to fall for a former flame’s familiar traps. “I Know What I Want’ is empowering, fun, sassy, and extremely catchy – all things that Rose is great at achieving in her music.
“I know what I want and I don’t want you // I’ve been down this road you ain’t nothing new // Don’t need another night of this déjà vu // Yeah I know what I want and I don’t want you // You packed it up you drove away // You said goodbye and you didn’t say a thing // You dragged my name all over town // You took my flame and hell you burned it out // It ain’t right how you did me wrong // You already left me so leave me alone // I know what you want and I don’t want you”
“I Know What I Want” is one of Rose’s most impressive releases to date!

Kip Moore releases his new album, Solitary Tracks, officially out now, February 28th on all streaming platforms. Learn more and listen to the new album below.
With his soulful rasp and unique approach to music, Kip Moore has been a mainstay in country music for nearly fifteen years. Now, he’s releasing his most unique and ambitious project thus far, a 23-track collection that truly takes listeners on a journey. On Solitary Tracks, out now, the singer-songwriter offers a collection that finds him stepping outside any preconceived notions and embracing who he is as an artist.
“I’ve gotten to a place where I just don’t give a f**k about [the Nashville optics],” Moore revealed in a statement. “A lot of times I feel like I’m walking this plank. I’ve got people that believe in me and they’re really good to me – but at the end of the day, I know I’m going to walk out on that plank by myself.”
In taking that leap, the Georgia native wrote or co-wrote all but one of the album’s tracks, exploring various sides of his personality and experiences. He enlisted co-writers including Brett James, Nathan Chapman, Kristian Bush, Jaren Johnston, Casey Beathard, and others to craft a story of love, growth, ambition, and so much more..
“I’m never going to cheat by just trying to write what I think people want to hear, or hold onto a sound that worked for me,” shares Moore. “I’m going to always be authentic with myself, with every record, and all I ever hope is that people find a little solace. This project is a journey in itself, so I hope it helps people navigate their own life. There’s no pattern you have to follow, and sometimes you gotta gamble on yourself. You gotta be bold enough to trust your gut, and willing to roll those dice if you believe in something.”
The album opens with “High Hopes,” a fitting title for what kicks off an epic listening experience. With its lush guitars and Moore’s unmistakable voice, it builds to an anthemic chorus as he explores where he’s been, where he is, and where he’s going. “It’s me unpacking in real time where I’m at right now – and for the first time, saying goodbye to it,” he explains.
Although the album starts on an uptempo note, ballads definitely dominate the first half of the collection, ranging from the solo written “Solitary Tracks” to the stunning “Pretty Horses,” which allows Moore to show off his emotive uniqueness. Meanwhile, the album’s titular track builds up to a booming chorus about a pair of outsiders in love who just can’t seem to make it work. “Someday maybe we’ll recross paths…Ain’t never been the ones to run with the pack, just a couple lone wolves making solitary tracks,” he croons.
Two of the immediate standouts on the LP are “Around You” and “Bad Spot,” telling two very different stories. The former is a single-worthy and snappy earworm, dedicated to being unable to resist someone in all the best ways. Alternatively, “Bad Spot,” hits like a late night voice mail and is the only song not co-written by Moore. Written by Beathard, it’s a melodic midtempo that finds him admitting his mistakes and hoping to move on from them with the woman he loves.
“I hit a little rough patch, some rocky road // A stretch of life that took its toll // Next thing I know, you’re breakin’ up on me // But I guess it took some goin’ there to get me here // Some growin’ up to make it clear // That old me in my mirror, he ain’t the guy you need // I know I don’t deserve another shot // But I’m in a better place, kinda like a call drop // Yeah, I lost you in a bad spot, yeah”
“Livin’ Side,” “Learning As I Go,” and “Straight Line Boots” each continue the Georgia native’s reformation, celebrating the steps he’s made to be a good man and the woman who has helped him get there. “You got me closer to a got it all together man, walking these straight line boots,” He sings. “’I’m a better man, baby, when I’m with you.”
“Flowers in December” is another special moment, a booming ballad that also marks one of Moore’s all-time favorite recordings. “I’ve always struggled with some of these things that I’m talking about, and I’ve had a tendency to carry them with me – even when I’m writing about trying to let it go,” he reveals. “But for the first time in my life, I don’t feel like I’m looking as much in the rear view.”
Some of the album’s tracks find him in a place of nostalgia, with “Half Full Cup” celebrating “small town dreamers,” while “Like Ya Stole It” takes him back to the poignant lessons he learned while riding shotgun in a car. Likewise, “Southern Son” finds Moore embracing his Southern upbringing, while “Burn” finds him longing for simpler times and global peace.
“Live Here to Work” is another immediate standout, grabbing your attention with a roaring proclamation of “F**k that, I don’t live here to work!” It’s a mix of alt rock and country in the best way possible, segueing into a blistering guitar solo as he shuns that 9 to 5 lifestyle.
“Love & War” is a driving and catchy uptempo that finds the singer-songwriter proclaiming that “All is fair in love and war,” while “Good Things Never Last” is a soulful and bluesy rompy that shows off a totally new and unexpected side to Moore’s voice.
The album wraps with the one-two punch of “Take What You Can Get,” a breezy and optimistic look ahead, and “Only Me,” a rootsy pop-country search for kindred spirits. It’s a fitting closing note for Solitary Tracks, finding Moore no longer a lone wolf, but instead, in search of a new pack.
For Kip Moore, Solitary Tracks represents a transformation of both an artist and a man, and the result is a powerful and sometimes unexpected collection that is sure to delight old and new fans alike.

Kashus Culpepper shares new song, “Talk With Me,” out now, February 26th, on all streaming platforms. Listen to the new release below.
There are few things we love more than championing new artists in country music. Big Loud Records signee, Kashus Culpepper is a new artist we are really excited about. With just a few songs under his belt and less than a year into his recording career, the singer has the poise and the talent of a star in the making. Today the innovative artist releases his next new track called “Talk With Me.”
“Talk With Me’ is a blend of country, soul, and even gospel influences. It transcends genre and personifies feeling. Culpepper’s gritty, yet buttery vocals feel so inviting that he could literally be seeing the alphabet instead of a lyrically-profound song like “Talk With Me.”
“What would you say girl if I said please // Just put down those keys // Sit and talk with me // I know lately I ain’t been all there // Now I see, sit, and talk with me // What a lonely road that I lead us down // I can only hope it ain’ttoo late to turn around // ‘Cause I didn’t know I loved you girl until tonight // SO before you go and say goodbye // Sit and talk with me”
“Talk With Me” is an incredible song. We look forward to seeing the type of music the singer continues to release on his journey! He is definitely worth the hype.
